China is huge of course, but that doesn't mean the same principles of
economics and politics don't apply. Currently the Chinese government is trying
to bring entrepreneurialism to the country. What they are seemingly woefully
unaware of is that in order to fully develop the economy of the country then they
will have to give up the shackles of communism. Until the party is gone, the
economy can not truly flourish.
Typically, many of the state enterprises are being privatized by giving the
companies to the friends and relatives of the those in power. Which is not at all
different than the divine right of kings as expressed by monarchies.
Also typically with statist systems, when someone out of favor gets or has
money the state comes to claim it, usually using trumped up or absurd charges.
Indeed the entire legal system of China would need a major overhaul before
entrepreneurialism can flourish. There are lots of laws against all sorts of things
that are required for economic growth. The growth that China is current
experiencing is the direct result of the lessening of communist law's hold on the
place.
We have nothing to fear from a rich China -- free countries usually have the
same interests. A rich China, and free China would not be threatening Taiwan
or Hong Kong, they would be doing business with them. A healthy competition
and protection of proprietary rights is not prone to violence.
There is no "special" way that Chinese people perceive the world. There is
only the order imposed from above by the state. There is little difference
between the Chinese Emperor -- a descendant of God -- and the Communist
party -- which comes from Scientific Socialism.
